I have no special preferences. I have a simple grammar to implement, and 
  my main criteria is simplicity.
When reading OpenToken's doc, I had the impression that a descent 
recursive parser was easier to write (even if beta).
That's probably wrong. For example, my grammar is not LL1, and this 
cause an extra work when using descent parser in OpenToken.

The fact is that I have spent to much time on this topic.
I am about to give-up doing the full analysis with OpenToken, and be 
back to "hand made" analysis. I know that this will becomes a nigthmare 
when the grammar will grow in complexity, but for now it's still OK.
